This well-kept Victorian-era garden cemetery and arboretum covers 80 acres and includes hundreds of examples of Victorian cemetery art. Audio tours and tour maps of the cemetery tell about local history and many of the notable Civil War soldiers, politicians, musicians and civil rights activists buried here.
